Problem understanding how to export maps correctly.

Stavaas

Hey guys,
I've had a blast working with Substance Painter for the first time! Now its time to export the maps, but I'm having a very hard time figuring out how to do it correctly, and I can't find any tutorials that cover the workflow on how to export all the PBR maps like metallic, roughness etc to diffuse, specular and normalmap.

I'd be extremely grateful if someone would take the time and explain it!

The closest you could get for a non-pbr workflow without having to go and modify the textures in Photoshop afterwards would probably be to use the Glossiness as a specular, metallic as a reflection mask and base color as diffuse.
You may want to multiply your AO map on top of your diffuse later on too.

This part of the documentation explains how to create a custom export preset:

Thanks for the reply man! Yeah I did check out that document, but since English isn't my first language, I sometimes have a hard time understanding technical stuff unless it's explained to me like I'm 5

I'll take another look at it though, and try to read it even more carefully!
